Green Weddings II: Bride's Magazine February-March 2007 Issue
Thinking about a green wedding like the ones described in Sunday's NYTimes? Check out the February-March issues of Brides magazine, which features a planning guide for a green wedding.
According to Brides editor Millie Martini Bratten, interviewed for the NYTimes article,
(O)ver the last five years the interest in green weddings has blossomed from a desire to incorporate a few green elements, like a vegan menu, to making sure the entire celebration won’t contribute to the depletion of natural resources. This may include finding halls that recycle, hiring caterers who use locally grown ingredients, decorating with potted plants that can be transplanted and using soy-based candles, rather than those of petroleum-based wax.
Pick up the latest issue of Brides at your local newstand.

HI -
This is Kate from the NY Times article mentioned above. I think it is amazing that green weddings are taking off! The more resources out there on how to plan a green wedding the better. With 2.5 million weddings a year I think we should do what we can to get the message out!
On that note - If you liked the article in the NY Times you might enjoy the book I wrote about how to plan your green wedding from start to finish - The Green Bride Guide (Dec. 2008). In the mean time, I have launched a companion website www.thegreenbrideguide.com where you can find advice, pictures form real green weddings and links to eco-conscious products.
I am always looking for couples to feature on the real weddings page to inspire others with their eco-chic decor. If you are interested please email me kate@thegreenbrideguide.com.
All the best,
Kate
